The association in one paragraph
Chinesischer Turm e.V. is a Munich association founded on 19 January 2019 and registered at the Munich district court (VR 208108). It grew out of a decades-old regulars' table at the Chinese Tower and keeps Bavarian beer garden culture and the traditions at the tower alive: with a monthly Stammtisch, a presence at the Kocherlball and the festivals of the year, and this website as the most detailed source about the tower. The association does not run the beer garden; that is the Haberl family's business.

Story angles
The tower makes stories: the servants' ball that was banned in 1904 for immorality and returned in 1989 (Kocherlball); the beer garden where bringing your own food is a protected tradition (beer garden); a wooden pagoda that burnt in 1944 and was rebuilt true to the original (history); and a young association keeping it all alive (get involved).
